Election Day affirmed for me and my running mates, Trustee-elect Janice Abdo-Rott, re-elected Trustee Eric Krouse and re-elected Justice Joseph Greenman, what we have always felt -- that each of us is part of a larger village family we call Manlius. We are all bound by a sense of common purpose, pride and passion for our village.

My fellow Vision Party candidates very much appreciate the support we received from our families, friends and fellow village residents and voters.

Congratulations to Trustee Natalie Miner on being re-elected.

We will all work hard to reward your faith and confidence in us by serving the village of Manlius to the very best of our abilities to make it an even better place to live and work.

As your mayor, I believe that the only things Manlius can't do are the things it chooses not to do. With your continued support there isn't anything we can't do ... together.
